A man who apparently hid drugs in the pocket of her six-year-old daughter's jacket was arrested Monday after he went to the kid's school to retrieve them. According to authorities, Dennis Riker, 41, might have hidden the drugs in the child's jacket during the weekend, but apparently forgot to remove them.

In order to remove the drugs from the jacket, Riker went to her school and tried to intercept her while in the school's bus parking lot. However, a staff member at the school would not let him in because Riker was not the girl's legal guardian.

Riker then called her mother, the legal guardian of the child, to come to school, the police said, according to The Star-Ledger reports.

In the meantime, the school authorities also called the lady, but believed someone else answered the call and tried to impersonate as the girl's grandmother, Hillside Deputy Chief John Frize told The Star-Ledger.

The school staff grew more suspicious when the grandmother arrived and specifically asked for the girl's jacket. Police was called in and a search revealed the drugs in the jacket.

The grandmother confessed that her son duped her into asking for the jacket.

Riker was arrested and charged with drug possession with intent to distribute and possessing drugs within 1,000 feet of a school. He was being held in municipal jail on $40,000 bail.
